Continuing...

It was a rough night until daylight. Winds maybe stopped around 4;00 or 5;00 in the morning. At daylight, I made my way outside to check on all of our outside cats. Their cat houses were turned over, and their boxes were out in the yard. All cats, inside and outside, were in distress.

I began counting tails and found everyone was accounted for. Everyone was traumatized, especially when the generator was pulled out and turned on.

20 days is basically three weeks with no power/internet. We made it through with no major disasters. All cats were safe,

Trying to catch up...

So, yeah, it was 20 days offline with no power or internet. Some of my neighbors still have no power due to damaged homes and private poles/weather heads that an electrician is required to service.

Updating on the cats who have weathered the storm: Skittle (handicapped with one eye and limited vision) and Cutie (11 years old) were in the office during the hurricane. They normally stay in the office with a cat tree and a view of the outside front yard through the large window. I had just checked on them at about 3:00 AM and they were fine. The power had gone offline and always happens during storms.

I stepped out on the back porch to kinda get a feel for what was going on. Our hurricane issues are usually just a little wind and some small amounts of rain. That night, it was not anywhere near our usual "bad weather."

Rose update: On Monday night, I came in from work to find Rose, as usual, sitting on the Keurig waiting for me to return home. When I picked her up, she was very unsteady, glassy-eyed, and extremely warm in temperature.

I immediately gave her an extra dose of her medication, and then I held her in my arms near the AC unit until her fever broke around midnight. She slept on my pillow the rest of the night.

Tuesday morning, we were at the vet's office when they opened the door. Rose was quickly taken back to be evaluated. I left her there in capable hands. She was required to be admitted to the hospital for a few days.
